Where have we been?

Where have we been?

Where are we now?

Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3

Phase 1 (2016)

We recruited stakeholders to analyze the problem, created a beginning set of system elements, and began considering a framework for a Detroit community development system.

Phase 2 (2017-2018)

We formed an Advisory Council, conducted extensive research resulting in a specific set of challenges and created Task Forces to respond to those challenges and develop test-projects for most of the elements.

Phase 3 (2019-2020)

Stakeholders will champion elements of the system, working closely with CDOs and GROs, by “test-piloting” project ideas:

  • Coordination of Capacity Building Services
  • Community Development Career Navigation Model
  • Neighborhood Vitality Success Framework
  • Neighborhood Voice and Advocacy Framework
  • At least two city-CDO funded partnerships

Simultaneously we will:

  • Activate the System Capitalization element
  • Establish a governance/oversight structure
  • Develop a process to resolve CDO coverage for all neighborhoods

Black Voices: The Stories that Need to be Told Webinar

September 14, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm

Join journalists Karen Hawkins, Jawan Strader, Dorothy Tucker and Topher Sanders, and researchers Amy Mitchell and Priscilla Standridge for the Knight Foundation’s Black Voices: The Stories that Need to be Told webinar

In the wake of George Floyd’s killing, journalists are having their own reckoning on how newsrooms have upheld systemic racism. Some major outlets have announced new teams devoted to covering race and systemic oppression. What does research show about how Black Americans experience the news? What stories need to be told on a broader scale? On Episode 11 of ​“Informed & Engaged,” the Knight Foundation will talk with Chicago Reader’s Karen Hawkins, NBC 6 Miami’s Jawan Strader, CBS 2 Chicago’s Dorothy Tucker and ProPublica’s Topher Sanders about the stories news organizations should focus on today. The conversation will also include insights from new research on Black Americans and the media from Amy Mitchell, director of journalism at Pew Research Center, and Priscilla Standridge, senior research consultant at Gallup.

Hosted by Karen Rundlet | Director/Journalism at Knight Foundation
